The Jefferson Giving Tree Needs Your Help

We are organizing a Jefferson Giving Tree to provide gifts for Jefferson families who could use some extra help this winter. Please help support our Jefferson families by purchasing gifts from this wish list if you are able to help.

When purchased from the wishlist, the gifts are delivered directly to Jefferson where they are collected and given to families before the winter break.

⭐ We ask that you look for a deliver by date on or before December 4th to ensure we have time to get all gifts to families before the winter break. ⭐
